WASHINGTON LETTER.
A Ycnr'n Work of flic I.and OUlce—A
Siege of Typhoid Fever—Pay
ment For Somoau Illtles.
[Special Correspondence.!
The report of the commissioner of
the general land office, made public the
other day, shows a large Increuse In
the current work of the office for the
past year. The total cash receipts of
the laud office for the past year amount
to $4,379,758, which is an increase
over the previous year of $1,309,021
and over the fiscal year of 1898 of $2,-
101,703.
There was a proportionate Increase
in the amount of laud disposed of, tho
total this year amounting to 13,453,-
887 acres, an increase of 4,000,000 acres
over the previous year. The homestead
entries for the year aggregated 8,478,-
409 acres, an Increase of 2,300,822
acres over the previous year. There
has been also a large Increase for the
year in the uutuber of llual homestead
entries made.
There has been a decrease in the
number of mineral land entries made
during the year, but this is to be ac
counted for largely by the number of
suspensions, notably in Colorado and
Montana, under late rulings made by
the secretary of the Interior. While
there lias been a diminution in the
number of mineral land entries in gen
eral there lias been an increase in the
number of patents Issued upon coal
land entries.
Important work lias been accom
plished in the forestry division. Two
of the existing forest reserves, the
Preseott reserve in Arizona and the
Big Horn in Wyoming, have been en
larged by 423,(580 acres and 1,180,800
acres respectively. The Olympic for
est reserve in Washington has been
reduced by 1,923,540 acres in response
to the urgent requests of representa
tive citizens and commercial bodies in
that state on the ground that the re
serve included a great deal of vnluable
agricultural land which had been en
tered upon by bona tide settlers. One
new reserve was created, that of
Santa Ynez, In southern California,
comprising 145,000 acres of lnnd. The
object of the reservation was to pro
tect the watershed upon which a num
ber of thriving communities depended.
A Slene of Typhoid Fever.
Washington Is suffering from a siege
of typhoid fever. The hospitals are
taking care of an unprecedented num
ber of patients suffering from this dis
ease, which also has entered scores of
Washington homes.
There are 35 typhoid cases at Provi
dence hospital, 22 at Garfield, 11 at the
Children's hospital, 0 at the Homeo
pathic, 0 at Georgetown university, 2
at the Washington asylum, 2 at the
Columbian university, 1 at the Colum
bia, 3 ut the Foundling, 1 at the Sibley
and 1 at the Naval. This makes a to
tal of 88 existing cases of typhoid fe
ver now being treated at hospitals.
"In my opinion," said Health Officer
Woodward yesterday, "the cause of
the spread of typhoid in this city is due
to the dry spell we have had, which has
caused the ground to have an insuffi
cient amount of moisture. The wells
have been obliged to absorb from a lar
ger area of country and ofttimes have
drained through impure places. In
other cases the wells have run dry, nnd
tho people have procured their drink
ing water from the Potomac river.
"I notice that a large number of ty
phoid cases are among men nnd wom
en having just returned from their va
cations. They probably were at places
where the wells ran dry and where the
obliging landlord gave his guests water
from the nearest stream."
Payment For Snmonn lUflen.
Baron Speck von Sternberg, German
charge d'affaires, was at the statu de
partment the other day in reference to
closing up that branch of the Samoan
agreement relating to the payment to
the native Sumoans of the value of the
rifles surrendered by them. When the
Samoan commissioners arrived at
Apia, they deemed it expedient first to
secure the disarmament of the belliger
ent native factions. This was agreed
to by the natives on the understanding
that $12.50 for each rifle would be paid.
Some 3,000 rifles thereupon were turn
ed over. Tho natives now are asking
the payment of the money, and Dr.
Solf, the governor, has proposed that
the payment shall be made under re
strictions proposed by the foreign con
suls In order that the considerable
amount of money Involved shall not
lead to disorder among the natives.
The three parties Interested In Samoa
at the time of the surrender of the ri
fles—the United States, Germany and
Great Britain—will jointly contribute
the amount required, and no difficulty
is apprehended in making the settle
ment.
Civil Service Information.
Acting President John B. Harlow of
the United States civil service commis
sion lias Issued a statement to the spe
cial committee of the National Civil
Service Reform league denying the
charge that the commission is holding
back Information. An agent of the re
form league recently attempted to pos
sess himself of Information, but was
refused permission to consult the flies.
The reason assigned for this action, as
given by Acting President Harlow, is
pursuant to a minute adopted at a
meeting of the commission July 14, re
quiring that all Information should be
given out through the officials of the
commission and that access should be
denied on account of the demands of
public Interests.
The series of pictures which have
been prepared under the direction of
Admiral Hicliboru and recently placed
in the circular spaces above the win
dows and doors of his office represent
the evolution of what might be called
national naval architecture in this
country from its earliest beginnings to
its latest development nnd includes a
representative of each distinct type.

THE GLASS OF FASHION.
China silks of the pompadour period
form some of the newest petticoats.
Shades of yellow with cream piny the
part of accessories to the brown cloth
gowns which uro to be so much worn
this season.
Black velvet embroidered with gold
is used for decoration on the new rough
materials. Zlbeline is especially pret
ty ornamented in this way.
Stockings to match the gown are the
latest fad, and one way to obtain tills
is to purchase the white ones and have
them dyed to match the sample of your
gown.
Empire gowns of beaded and em
broidered nets are shown among the
new evening gowns. The neck Is cut
low, and the sleeves are long and
transparent.
White broadtail Is used as a dress
trimming this season, a two inch baud
widening into scallops on the upper
edge, sewed on the flounces of a pale
gray gown, being one example.
The craze for machine stitching has
assumed another form, and the chain
stitch is used in close rows around the
edge of clotli coats, the rows being so
close together that the effect resembles
military braid.
Some of the newest gowns for house
wear Introduce a sash either at one
side of the back or one side of the
front. A black moussellne sash witli
bands of gold ncross the ends is very
effective in some colors.
It is reported that eastern embroid
eries nrc to adorn the rovers nnd col
lars of our fur coats, but It is to be
hoped that such a fancy may not ma
terialize, since the beauty of fur Is
rarely if ever enhanced by anything
except very dainty lace.—New York

ORCHARDMAN D GARDEN.
Properly cared for, currants will bear
fruit for 25 years without losing vigor.
If the orchard bears little fruit, and
that of poor quality, give a good dress
ing of mauure.
When pear trees refuse to grow and
appear dormant, cultivate well and ap
ply wood ashes.
One advantage with well drained
land Is that on it the fruit willtcome to
maturity earlier.
A complete change of soil In'flower
pots is sometimes necessary. It will
give the plants more food.
Trees will make a growth of leaves
and wood on poor land, but mineral
manures are required to ;>erfeet fruit.
Pears need better land than the ap
ple and more constunt culture, but
should not be cultivated.afteo- midsum
mer.
Potatoes and roots, which grow in
the soil, iwi.v be placed in contact with
the soil, but fruits must no* be, as It
gives an earthy flavor, though this will
partly pass away.
If strawberry plants were set out
early, it is a good plan to go carefully
over the rows now and, If any plants
are missing, replnce them, as it Is quite
an item to have a good stand oC plants.

1 TRUE LOVE. |
* •
Aluric Leigh bore his fate like a man
when he Icurned from the lips of Aurora
Stanley that she was the promised wife
of another. Aurora's betrothed husband
was expected from Europe, and the prep
arations for the wedding had already be
gun. But one morniug the thunderbolt
fell.
Her father had speculated heavily and
lost. Hoping to retrieve his losses, he
had become an embezzler and a forger,
and his sin had found him out.
The dainty, spoiled child of luxury was
forsaken by her butterfly friends and
sneered down as the beggared daughter
of a fleeing criminal.
"I am so glad Cliarles is rich," she
thought. And for the first time since she
knew him she thought of him with some
thing like affection and yearned for his
comiug. "The steamer cume in this
morning, aud in a few hours more he will
be here to comfort me."
But before he came she had another
guest.
Looking from a window of the grand
mansion that in another week would be
her home no longer, she saw Alaric
Leigh coming up the marble steps.
"Miss Stanley," he begun gravely, "I
have come on a most disagreeuble errand.
I am commissioned to inform you that
your unhappy father has returned to the
city nud means to give himself up to jus
tice."
"He must not!" she gasped.
"He has no means to do otherwise,"
answered the young man gravely. "He
sent mo to tell you that if you could dis
pose of your diamonds he might by the
proceeds not only reach Europe in safety,
but also establish some sort of business
there by which he might some time re
gain an honorable name and place among
his fellow men."
"Here they are," she said hurriedly,
placing a heavy casket in his bauds.
"Oh, Alaric, go quickly, and tell him if
he loves his suffering daughter to never
give himself up to a felon's punishment."
In her trouble she never thought to in
quire how Alaric Leigh had become the
confidant of her disgraced parent.
As she spoke the bell rang loudly.
"It is Charley!" she said gladly.
"One word more, Aurora, before I go,"
said Alaric. "If you ever feel that you
need my friendship, do not hesitate to
send for me."
The girl did not hear him. She only
seemed to hear the firm, light footsteps
on the threshold of the parlor door, and
Alaric, passing out of a door opposite,
looked back for a second and saw her
spring into the embruce of Charles Buck
ingham.
"Oh, Charley! I am so glad you have
come. I am in such trouble," said Au
rora, clinging to his arm as she drew him
to a seat.
"Indeed, my little goddess!" drnwled
the exquisite. "What sort of trouble?"
"Oh, Charley, have you not heard of
our terrible misfortune?" she asked. "I
thought the whole city would babble it
to you before you saw me."
"I have heard nothing," he returned,
growing anxious.
And so she told him nil, never heeding
as she talked on with feverish rapidity
that the face of the man who had plight
ed to her eternal love and constancy was
assuming a smile of lofty and haughty
indifference.
"And so the wedding can't bo?" he ob
served in a tone that cut through her
heart like a thrust of frosty steel. "Is
that what you want to suggest, Miss
Stanley? Well, you are quite right. Most
girls under such circumstances would
have held a poor fellow to his contract.
But you are as wise as you are unselfish,
and I honor you for it, Itory—'pon my
soul I do."
Aurora sprang to her feet, amazed and
indignant at this unparalleled act of hy
pocrisy and his offensive familiarity.
"Thank God, I never loved you!" she
cried, aud, tearing the betrothal ring
from her finger, she flung it at his feet.
"Go, and leave me alone! In all the
world I have not a friend—not one."
"In all the world I have not a friend
not one," was the burden of Aurora's sor
row for many a weary day.
One dny Aunt Hetty, in her faded
brown silk and ancient bonnet, came for
the unhappy girl.
"You must go homo with me, Rory. It
is a poor sort of place for a fine lady, but
it is better than nothing, girlie."
So Aurora went, and when the sum
mer came again Alaric Leigh came with
it. If he still loved Aurora, ho never
betrayed the fact by any sign whatever,
and perhaps that was why, with the in
consistency of girlhood, she began to
think him a paragon among men. But
ho did love her still, and after a long,
long time he told her so.
"An affection like mine, Aurora," he
said, in his grave, straightforward way,
"never changes. I can give you a com
fortable home, aud if you will be my wife
I shall be the happiest of husbands."
"I can't marry you for a home," she
answered, and a tender quaver in her
voice made his heart beat faster.
"Marry me for love, thou, dear," he
observed audaciously.
"Oh, blind Alaric! I have loved you
always."
And that was the truth.
What a quiet little wedding it was!
No satin and lace and orange blossoms;
only a slim, beautiful form, robed, like
the simplest village maid, ia plain white
muslin and crowned with white rose
buds. —Exchange.

"I never found out how wise my fa
ther was," said the robußt, rosy faced
man, "until I grew up. One of the
things he did was to bunko me com
pletely. It was as clean a case of swin
die as one could hope for, but I never
realized it until I grew up. There were
four boys In our fnmily, and we were all
pretty healthy enters, with a boy's nat
ural love for jam, cakes, pies and other
indigestible stuff. We had a table pretty
well stocked with these things at home,
and it was a rule that the boys were to
have everything they wanted to eat.
There was no restriction as to anything,
and enke and jam were just as free as
bread.
"There was only one proviso, and that
was, 'lf you eat rich things, you must
Iny a good foundation.' This foundation
was a grent big, thick slice of bread, with
butter on It. We always eyed the good
things longingly, laid the foundation and
then somehow didn't care so much to
stuff ourselves. As I say, I never found
out how I was bunkoed until I grew up,
but I think my good digestion is due to
this wise provision."
ROUND THE REGION.
A very attractive-looking young
woman, with the aid of a revolver,
relieved William Simon 9 of his pocket
book, containing 8125, in Scranton.
The robbery occurred on Washington
avenue, where the young woman lay in
wait in an unfrequented spot. Edith
Pond has been arrested, charged with
being the highway woman.

ran in the house and locked the doors.
